alright well i am selling a longboard on craigslist and this guy emails me saying he wants to buy this.. and i reply saying yes the item is still available and he sends me this...
Hello
Thanks you for the response according to the description, am okay
with the price and the condition pasted on cl. I am ready to make
instant purchase. My mode of payment would be in CERTIFIED CHECK and i
will arrange for a local pick up as soon as you get the check, because
that is the only convenient means for me and due to my work frame i
can not be able to get there and i promise everything will go
smoothly. I really wish to be there to check out the item but i don't
have chance cause am very busy man (Doctor).Concerning the pick up, i
will arrange for it after you receive the payment and it clears... Pls
get back to me with below info so that i can proceed withthe payment
immediately if you are selling to me.
Name:
Address: Not P.O. BOX..
City:
State:
Postal Code:
Total amount for the item :
Phone Number: That i can send text message
And as soon as this is provided, the payment will be overnight to you
and i will let you know when its mailed out. Thanks and i hope we
handle this in good faith while waiting to hear from you. i will add
an additional $30 so that you can hold it for me till the check reach
you.
Best Regard
pretty sure its a scam :] what are your thoughts? |
